Customer reviews for BFGoodrich g-Force COMP-2 A/S PLUS - 255/40R19/XL 100Y Tire forLove These Tires!!
These tires just transformed my ride! I swear...these tires improved my car's ride and the way it handless. Wet or dry, they grip in the turns and they are pretty quiet for how aggressive the tread is. I had to go out with them in a heavy icy snow storm on I88 and 290,and I never slid, not once!! I would definitely buy again!
Unstable and Disconnected Feel
Installed these tires yesterday and immediately noticed a serious handling issue. At any speed and on all road surfaces, the car feels unstable — almost as if it’s floating. There’s a constant swaying or “squirrely” sensation that makes the car feel disconnected from the road. Steering feels vague and unpredictable; after turning in one direction, the car feels like it shifts drastically in the opposite direction, requiring correction. It also feels as though any sudden maneuver could upset the vehicle’s balance and cause it to veer uncontrollably. While adjusting tire pressures helped, the issue remains. I believe the sidewalls are overly soft, and that mounting them on the minimum recommended 6.5" rim may be contributing to the problem. For a performance all-season tire, this level of instability is disappointing and feels nearly unsafe.

Not *perfect* but amazing all around tire for the price
No one tires is perfect at everything so my 5 star review is based on overall performance and cost compared to other UHP all seasons. There is a reason why Consumer Reports has this tied for THE best UHP all season, regardless of price, and it's a good 15% lower cost than its same corporate owned but different brand competitor. Pro's: VERY well rounded tire with good to very good performance in nearly every category; from winter performance as a non-winter tire, to wet and dry cornering and braking and ride quality. This is truly a UHP and not regular all season, a few reviewers who rated this tire down clearly bought the wrong category and shouldn't review a UHP tire for their non-performance boring sedans. This means compared to a regular or Touring all season, these are slightly louder and wear out a little faster, all 100% expected in a UHP all season, but FAR from annoying if you have a modern car that is in good condition with good alignment and non-worn out suspension. Ride is perfectly balanced, smooth and handling feels very stable and confident, it clearly rides more comfortably AND handles better than cheapie UHP all seasons I had previously. Con's: For a UHP all season, take off/launch traction and surprisingly hydroplaning is merely average, which is still acceptable for sure.. Still, overall, for a good 15% less cost than the top Ultra premium UHP all season tier, this easily competes with those in excellent all around performance and feel. Seems there does seem to be the rare "bad" one that won't balance well or wears out unevenly, just buy and have mounted at a shop you trust that also offers the rotating instant rebate deals that make these an awesome overall value.
Great but noisy as the miles add up.
Bought these in late 2018 to replace the Bridgestone RE980AS tires that came with my car. Better handling and braking in the wet and dry than the Bridgestones. Less understeer (better turn in) than the Bridgestone as well. I really enjoyed them but they get progressively noisier as the miles add up. I would give them 5 stars if not for the distinct "rumbling" sound they generate.
Exceeded expectations
Bought these back in January or February. For starters, they were great in the snow and I couldn’t expect anything more from tires that aren’t winter tires because they exceeded my expectations in that department. Next, they are great in dry weather driving, I do not drive easily and like to take corners at high speeds and the tires work together with my car flawlessly to not disappoint. I have yet to slide or lose traction in any manner in rain. Yes, they wear a bit quickly (but honestly not even that quickly), but you’re getting a great tire for the price. Also, the grippier the tires, the quicker they wear, so don’t complain about tread wear on ultra high performance tires. You just look goofy lol. There’s a nice donut media video on tires, I suggest you watch it. My only “complaint” with them is their is a noticeable amount of road noise. Again, it’s not that bad and my car is known for having poor sound insulation. Honestly, it’s a great all around tire that far exceeded my expectations in every area. The only way you’ll get anything better in my opinion would be to have top performing summer and winter tires. They were also really beefy looking when I first got them and I liked how that looked on my car lol.
Look no Further! These tires are it!!!
I purchased a set of tires for my 2013 Mazdaspeed 3 back in November 2019. I got 35,000 miles out of them! Ive had the Continental DWS, Michelin Pilot A/S and Dunlop. I decided to go with my second set of BFG COMP-2 A/S! I absolutely love these tires, more importantly these tires have my TRUST!
Awesome tire
Had these on my 2001 BMW M Roadster because my Michelin Pilots lasted only 12000 miles. I paid about $400 less for these and these are as good if not better than the Pilots. Cornering, grip, wet traction were all excellent. The ride is comfortable and quiet. Tread life didn’t last as long as what is listed but I at least got just a little over 20k miles before I had to replace them. You won’t regret putting these on any sports car.
G Force Comp 2 AS Plus
Just purchased the new G Force Comp 2 AS Plus tire absolutely incredible the handling the wet traction I live in an area with many flooded streets they go through the water as if you're in a boat water just streams away from the tires because of the directional tread pattern all I can say is incredible product and your slogan should be for this tire (drive with confidence) because the car feels like it's glued to the ground in any kind of weather hopefully will be all right in snow but mostly concerned with rain in my area great product recommending to everyone.
Thanks for the review and your commitment to BFGoodrich tires!
Best For The Money!
Having run three sets of G-Force COMP-2 A/S since late 2016 on my 2013 Ford Focus ST, my review will be about that previous version of this tire and not the new "PLUS" model, which, coincidentally, I'm about to get a new set of. The COMP-2 A/S replaced the OEM tires on my Focus ST and totally transformed the way it drove, and in nothing but GOOD ways! Much better grip in the dry and wet, and alleviated the need for snow tires unless things got really nasty. For my Focus ST and driving style (Spirited), I've found the COMP-2 A/S will last a good two years in daily driving duties if mounted new in November or December, so you have maximum tread depth for the first Winter and driving in the snow. After Winter is over, I don't rotate the tires and just keep driving on them normally through Spring, Summer,and Fall, then rotate them just before the next Winter (November/December) so I have maximum tread depth on the front wheels for driving in the snow again. Remember, this is for my front wheel drive Focus ST and you may need to rotate the tires differently if your vehicle is rear or all wheel drive. I then drive the tires another year without rotating and by Fall or Winter of the second year all four tires are about equally worn, a few millimetres about the wear bars. For me, that's when it's time to get a new set of COMP-2 A/S but keep the old set to use for Autocross or Track Day driving as there's still plenty of tread for that and they're still excellent in the rain. Overall, in my humble opinion, this is an excellent Ultra-High Performance All-Season Tire and the best value for the money. You can easily get two to three Winter seasons when driven daily and even use them for several more years at track tires! What's there not to like about that? Well done, BFG, well done indeed!!
Too soon to tell
I’ve had these tires installed on my VW R32 for only a week now, but I purchased them a month ago. I try very hard to get the best that I can afford. I’m frugal like that. I needed new tires for my daily driver. I commute about 100 miles a day. Five days a week. The route is paved & reasonably smooth concrete & asphalt. I live in the Midwest. So I needed an all season with as much performance as I could afford. After quite a bit of research & comparisons I chose the BF Goodrich G Force Comp2 Plus. My research sources were “The Tire Rack”, “Discount Tires Direct”, & other respected independent reviews & tests. While I do read/view some boards & videos posted by everyday “Joes”, like myself. I always take them with a large pinch of salt. This isn’t the newest tire on the market. Nor is the best tire in it’s class. However, for my needs & budget, it was exactly what I was looking for. I have owned other BFG performance tire pressure on similar vehicles in the past & I’ve had positive experience with them all. This will be the first time I’ve had them on an all wheel drive though. So I’ll update my review when I have more experience with that. In the short period I’ve had them I’ve noticed a decrease in road noise compared to my last set. (Federal Tire) They seem quite responsive and confidence inspiring. Lastly, they look great.
